Joey, I'm not arguing with you over who Manuel started. My point is more about the willingness of Girardi to adjust his rotation. I'm just saying he doesn't have a hell of a whole lot of options. He has his top 3 (which is pretty damn good), his #4 guy is now back to his old role and the you Gaudin who was accquired at the end for a 5th starter/long relief. He doesn't have a guy like Blanton, Happ or even Brett Myers sitting in is bullpen.
